Magazeen - My Town Lyrics
No idea the youths, them senselessShot innuh ya headAh make your body drop lifelessIn my town, my townAnd don't ya call 911‘Cause the Babylon no give a ***** about the black manInnuh my town, my town[Magazeen]Let me speak, first to the policeKillin' all my brothers in the streetsThen uh drive home to your familyHow you sleep when you left uh next family uh weepJustice, is there a such thing?‘Cause every time we see the judge we never winSo don't judge me by the color of my skinWe got a dream like Martin Luther, that's the kingBelieve in usNo idea the youths, them senselessShot innuh ya headAh make your body drop lifelessIn my town, my townAnd don't ya call 911‘Cause the Babylon no give a ***** about the black manIn my town, my town[Wale]The streets never loved a niggaAnd we could never trust a ***** or no politicianThat's why I spittin' tryna get it anyway I'm livin'Patriotism ain't beneficial, nigga wear your pistolUntil somebody listenThis for the ghetto they see the struggle, market the imageIt's when them niggas shoot everything with built up aggressionBald eagle or desert eagle, you pick a preferenceWe picks up gats a bop bop bop at your picket fences (gunshots)Yeah, this is soulful my niggaHope that I'm just giving you hope my niggaWe the soldiers my niggaDon't know you my nigga, but know you my niggaWe ain't got too much promisedTo my future son or daughterWhy use that marijuana?Go Google that Eric Garner and tell me it's hope for the youthAnd just who can get us out hereWhen the youth that's out there is only contributing problemNo idea the youths them senselessShot innuh ya headAh make your body drop lifelessIn my town, my townAnd don't ya call 911‘Cause the Babylon no give a ***** about the black manIn my town, my town
